Thats quite a jump... Arbiter General to the Director of the ISS XD.. regardless thank you, its good to be back
-
If no one has tried take the job, I'll gladly take it back, I am returning to active service across the spectrum
-
On the case of military based posts, military RP is quite common in Equilism and myself and another member regularly went at it, in both World War 2, World War 1 and in the common day with out current Cold War. I will post what we viewed to be the best example of "military" posts to show advanced RPing
-
There are literally an infinite amount of RPs we could do. Superheroes, Vampires, Magic, Harry Potter, Star Wars.
During my tenure as Arbiter General in the AoSS we had like 9 different Role Playing Worlds on going. In Equilism we have 5 "Worlds" plus several Pop Universe RPs
As I said I'll start bringing over some examples of posts and RP from Equilism to test the waters, and we can go from there
-
Most of the RPs we have going in Equilism are all character based. If character is what your going for, I think we can definitely find something to suit you! No prep necessary, just make your character and jump in

I was bored and wanted to use a verb I haven't used before
would you prefer this is my concrete nuke proof bunker? -
Alright time to set up shop
Now that thats out of the way I shall formally introduce myself. I am Vesica, commonly known elsewhere as V or Ves depending on whatever you wanna put down. I am for better or worse the Supreme Evil Overlord of RPs here and this is my joyous office. The first thing I want to do is feel out for Role Players here in the region.
Is there anyone who enjoys RPing, any particular type they like? I have a few RPs from Equilism I'm going to port over see if i can get some interest going.
Please feel free to post here in this topic, its where I wanna see all the feedback and concerns.
-
I'll go with the classic I've always been pleased with, Arbiter General, and I'll think about it... see how I wanna set the Role Playing scene up
-
I don't know about the Interior itself, but if the Role Playing desk is open, consider it filled... I've been running RPs throughout every region I've wandered into thus far
-
I can take over the Role Playing department... or rather actually get it off the ground...
-
Well I forgot to take the History of the Crimson Order's Political Structure at the University so I actually had no idea
if thats the structure damn it was a good structure -
Oh Poo is JAL... that makes sense now
-
Oh decapitation puns... how I enjoy them.
Yeah I think a Monarchy along the lines of Roman Empire would do. Have an "elected" Emperor or King with the support of the WA Senate to keep him in power, although he would obviously have the loyalty of the "Praetorian" Guard or Guardians to ensure the delegacy remained unless there was a mass revolt by every WA Senator... which would be epic indeed. The Delegate could still effectively rule by Decree, but allow the Senate to still have some power to make it appear as though the people still have some power. If the Emperor is truly depised or unwanted, its a simple matter of unendorsing him to remove him. A "Second Citizen" could be in the wings just in case of the Delegate being overthrown or in case of him retiring... but thats just the way I view it
-
Yy resigned? Jeez I can't even go to sleep anymore without everything hitting the fan.
I was wondering if Dictatorship was going to pop up... its only works if , as has been pointed out, there is Stalinist level purges.
Monarchy MIGHT work if it was used similar to the way the Roman Empire under Augustus was set up
-
I just wandered in and realized I was a Field Army Commander
I probably should keep track of what exactly I do around here -
My bad don't strike me down Oh Crimson King
-
If the people will support their Guardians I can only assume that these Guardians would need a leader... whom I can only also assume you'd have to point to yourself to lead?
-
New Crimson Order... who went and revived that
-
Other, obviously the only decent choice. I saw we go full out in a direction we aren't even looking at... FUNDAMENTALISM... not that I know how we would work that... but in all seriousness yeah why not try Monarchy
would you prefer this is my concrete nuke proof bunker?

I wouldn't say same gun, but I'd say use same ERA of weapon... here an example of a pair of posts from combat between the European Commonwealth, and the People's Federation of Hungary and Slovakia... equilivent of say a militarized European Union fighting against Iraq equipped with American weapons.
*Lieutenant General Zoltán looked at the situation in Terminal One with a truly grim pragmatism and a calmness that couldn't quite be described. He was personally commanding the defence of the Airport, and the entire Southeastern Military District from the Skycourt. The First Family and the Interior Minister were already on their way south for Slavic Airspace, and from there to continue onto the Greater Arabian Empire, with F-18SH escorts. If the Commonwealth truly wanted to kill the President's family and the Minister of the Interior there was little likely the Federation could do... but with the Battle for Budapest now entering a fever pitch, and the direct flightpath between the Presidential transports, and the Commonwealth Air Force now being intercepted by Budapest and its impressive AA defences it was hoped they could at least escape. He had personally elected to stay behind to watch over the defence of this place, buy them time, and to fight for as long as he could; he was still a member of the Federation Army and would fight as such.*
*He had to give credit where credit was due; the First Airborne Brigade was putting up an excellent defence in the de-funct Terminal One. However for one the first and only times of this campaign he had the advantage on his Commonwealth adversaries; and while he would give them every bit of honor they deserved, he would still need to bring them down so that he could focus his forces north again. The key advantage the Federation forces held here; because of the presence of Patriots within Budapest the radar facilities of the airport had still been very much intact, and were able to still coordinate strikes now. As Commonwealth air support came in, it was identified from a distance, which allowed the 3rd Air Defence Battalion, Patriot sites and the last remnants of the Federation Air Force, and the Federation Guard Air Wing, to pounce on them. Zoltan didn't want to give the 1st Airborne Brigade any advantages, and pulled the bulk of his forces out of Terminal One, truly allowing them to shell Terminal One with artillery and armor from the 4th Federation Guard Armored Regiment. Entrances from the holed up Terminal were watched with machine guns, and from hardened defensive points the Federation forces had prepared for the eventual Commonwealth assault this far down effectively pushing the 1st Airborne Brigade into an impossible position; either surrender which he knew they wouldn't do, stay in Terminal One and have it come down around their ears, or come out and fight, where the armor and superior numbers of the defending Federation forces would tear them to pieces. Zoltan grimaced... he wouldn't have wanted to be the Commonwealth Commander today.*
---------------------
*The commanders of the Federation Army's elite Armored Divisions all had a certain MO. All were high ranking members of the ruling Slovakian and Hungarian People's Party, all were life long members of the Hungarian Military, but key above all was their utter fanaticism. The commander of the 3rd Armored Infantry, Brigadier General Sebeök Megyer, was by no means any exception. The man was truly a Federation fanatic and zealot, having personally used his unit to put down revolts and hold onto Gyor for as long as he could. The fact he had been forced out of there when the Federation Guard had fought onto the end was a thing of deep dishonor to him, and it was something he planned on rectifying here. He had received orders directly from President Schmitt to hold the line here at all costs, e and ven though the odds were stacked stoutly against him, it was his absolute conviction and belief that he would somehow defeat the Commonwealth II Corps in front of him.*
*To the troops on the ground, the situation was significantly more bleak, and they were quite aware of it. Their General's fanatic defence of Gyor had cost them two entire Regiments, and heavily depleted the 6th Infantry Regiment; all told the 3rd Armored Infantry Division only had 7,000 of the original 15,000 left, though thanks to the efforts of the Division's XO, most of their armor was still intact. Thankfully the 9th Mechanized Infantry Brigade hadn't been asleep at the switch, and had fortified this key town to the capital to a far thee well, and the reinforcement by the 7th Federation Guard Regiment had helped significantly. Still they were woefully outnumbers, and without the air defences that Budapest had and was hoarding they were going to take a beating from the air; they would have to make due.*
*Brigadier General Megyer had the 9th Mechanized Infantry Brigade holding the centre against the 2nd Armored Divisions advance, using the urban environment to grind the campaign along and cost the Commonwealth and Czechs as many casualties as possible. He had received a fresh shipment of Stringers, AT4 and most of all Javelins and planned on using them as effectively as possible. The 9th Mechanized the largest unit he had open to him, and while he didn't have the same sort of armored support his own 3rd Armored and the 7th FG Armored Regiment had, they were still reasonably equipped and if anyone had any chance of holding the line; they did. In the northwest, covering Gyon Way and most importantly the M1 Highway, was the remains of the General 3rd Armored Infantry Division, which fought like demons possessed to keep the Commonwealth from pushing onwards. Their primary disadvantage was the fact they fought in a more open environment, and it was costing them, but they fought hard, and clearly weren't interested in retreating, his troops for the most part channeling their General's fanaticism. In the southwest however a much different battle was playing out.*
*Brigadier General Megyer had known early where the supporting Czechs were going to attempt to push into the country, and he planned on using that to his fullest advantage. Up against them he unleashed Ezredvezető (Regiment Leader) Lel Zyskowskiin's 7th "Czech" Federation Guard Armored Regiment. The Czech 1st Armored Brigade was built up to the same strength as the elite Federation unit, making it for the most a purely even fight; this was going to come down to who wanted it more, and the wily Megyer had chosen the 7th FG Armored for specifically this reason; they despised the current regime in the Czech Republic and he knew they would fight harder all the more because of it. The 7th "Czech" was without a doubt the best equipped unit within Megyer's command, and stood about on par with the 1st Armored Brigade. If it wasn't for the fact that the Czech had Commonwealth air support, and were advancing with the 2nd Armored Division, this fight may have taken significantly longer, and may have lasted for days. As it was however, even with those advantages the Czech Federation Guards didn't given ground, didn't give any quarter, and didn't take prisoners, anyone foolish enough to surrender on either side quickly realized this was for keeps and was shot subsequently. The battles for western Tatabanya was going to be, at least in this case, a fight to the bitter end.*
---------------------------------------------
*The northeast situation was desperate to General Benko, but he knew that he needed to trade space for time... plain and simple to him the outer most cities and towns from the capital were unimportant; if he pulled out of them, he could save their civillians who would for the most part simply allow the war to pass by them. To General Benko that was all that mattered.... not to say he wasn't taking the situation seriously, but no means, but he didn't see a point for fighting for that ground when there were far more important things to worry about.*
*General Benko had already ordered the 1st Armored Division to pull back into District XV, where the Federation planned on making its real stand, Even as the Commonwealth's Cruise Missiles were inbound, the positions they were attempting to annihilate had already been abandoned. Combined with the active radar from Budapest International Airport; until that airport was captured or neutralized, Air Support within Budapest proper was going to be fairly neutered from the presence of multiple Patriot sites, the still active Federation Air Force over the city, and the Federation's uncanny ability to hide their AA defences within the thick urban environment. The Federation also appeared to have thought ahead from the Commonwealth and even as the thought came across their minds, the Megyeri Bridge blew up from Federation explosives, sealing off the two Military Districts from one another.*
*Even as the 3rd Armored Division advanced they would find little to no resistance, outside of pockets that the 1st Armored Division had left behind as it pulled back into Budapest. It would seem the real fight for V Corps was inside the city itself... which was made even more worriesome when Commonwealth intelligence learned that the Federation's finest armor commander, Major General Kaszás Vayk, the commander of the elite 1st Armored Division was taking over personal command of the Northeast Military District by order of President Schmitt himself, setting the stage for a prolonged engagement.*
---------------------------------
*The Federation had cleverly hidden their Patriot and AA sites throughout the city and were likely only going to reveal them as needed, and move them as necessary, it would extend their life, and while it wouldn't make them go on forever, in this critical battle even minutes could matter. The three Air Defence Battalions that made the Northwest Military District home were well hidden within the city to maximize their life and increase their effectiveness and lethality.*
